FAQ
Multiply each number by its weighting factor (w). You'll be multiplying each set of numbers and weights together, then adding them all up to find the average. XResearchsource. For example, if your total quiz score is 82 and quizzes are worth 20% of your grade, multiply 82 x 0.2. In this case, x=82 and w=0.2.
Now that you have decimal scores, you'll need to determine the weight for every goal in the section. The sum of these weights has to be 100. Then, the calculator will automatically show you the weighted score, by multiplying the decimal score by its weight: 0.6 x 25 = 15.0, and so on.
